Ignition Coils 900 1996

robert,

thanks for your tips, I just came back from another look under the hood so I can see what I'll be getting from the dealer (I couldn't find anything similar to what I was looking for on the internet). But appearantly, all I'm looking for is the blue casing for the two metal poles going into the coil. The wax in the that casing has crumbled and I can't get the metal wires through. Its pretty small and seems cheap. I don't know if the dealer would sell something that small, and I don't know of any junk yards near by (i'm in houston if any one has any suggestions).

I know its the blue plug because when unpluged completely, the engine shakes as it is plugged. I then removed the casing and cleaned the crumbled wax off, plugged the wires in bare (green wire to my right the same as others). Test start and it worked fine. I wrapped them in a little electrical tape, and I'll visit the local dealer to see how they sell the wax tubes & blue case, and if i have to buy new spark plug wires (pain & more $).

thanks again for the help, I hope this wraps things up and might help someone out later.
